- Jurgen Klopp
The boss does not have time to scout all potential arrivals so he prefers to trust experts when making decisions on buying new players. However, he has the last word on every transfer and can veto any buy.
- Michael Edwards
The sporting director has a legendary status among the fans for his hard stance on selling players. Over the years, he has managed to profit by selling the likes of Dominic Solanke and Danny Ward. He also negotiated a £142m fee for Philippe Coutinho.
Edwards is known for being on friendly terms with board members of many other clubs, which helped the Reds land Takumi Minamino for a bargain price.
- Mike Gordon
The club's second-largest shareholder facilitates communication between the American owners and UK-based management. He was crucial in bringing Klopp and Virgil van Dijk to Anfield.
- Barry Hunter
Liverpool's head scout is said to be a good planner, resulting in the Reds' monitoring their targets for two transfer windows in advance. It means that in the summer, there will be no panic buys: the club already have all the required data.
- Dave Fallows
Hunting for potential new signings closely with Hunter, Fallows is the Reds' head of scouting and recruitment. The ex-Man City man is the one who compiles scout reports, keeps track of targeted players, and is credited with convincing Jurgen Klopp to buy Mo Salah.
- John Achtenberg
Not only the goalkeeping coach trains Alisson and Adrian (and is credited with turning the Brazilian into a world-class keeper), he also has a huge base of talented shot-stoppers from around the world. Hence, in case Adrian leaves, ex-Tranmere Rovers goalie will be assessing potential replacements.
